Beginners (Lesson #00)

Practice Songs

Once you have practiced through your notes on the guitar, you can try these songs to help you practice your sight reading. I'll be the first to admit that these songs are not very exciting, but remember the main idea here is to learn how to sight read. These songs are mostly nursery rhymes and old songs, one of the reason for using these songs is that a lot of people know them. Using top 40 or popular songs limits the amount of songs you can use, save your favorite songs for later when you start learning different styles.
